James Cammarata e0df5b5888 A couple more tweaks to role default variables/dependencies
* Default variables are now fed directly into roles, just like the
  other variables, so that roles see their unique values rather
  than those set at the global level.

* Role dependency duplicates are now determined by checking the params used
  when specifying them as dependencies rather than just on the name of the
  role. For example, the following would be included twice without having
  to specify "allow_duplicates: true":

  dependencies:
  - { role: foo, x: 1 }
  - { role: foo, x: 2 }

Ansible

Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.

Read the documentation and more at http://ansibleworks.com/

Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release. You can find instructions on http://ansibleworks.com/docs/gettingstarted.html for a variety of platforms. If you want a tarball of the last release, go to http://ansibleworks.com/releases/ and you can also install with pip (though that will bring in some optional binary dependencies you normally do not need).

Design Principles

  • Dead simple setup
  • Super fast & parallel by default
  • No server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
  • No additional software required on client boxes
  • Modules can be written in ANY language
  • Awesome API for creating very powerful distributed scripts
  • Be usable as non-root
  • The easiest config management system to use, ever.

Branch Info

  • Releases are named after Van Halen songs.
  • The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
  • Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases
  • We'd love to have your contributions, read "CONTRIBUTING.md" for process notes.
